On March 9, 2015 the National Bank of Ukraine introduced into circulation a newly designed 100-hryvnia banknote with a number of advanced international security features, including a transparent 'window' and an optically variable SPARK feature which changes color depending on the viewing angle.
The new note is the dominant yellow-olive color as with the previous version of the bill and is printed on paper substrate containing a watermark of Taras Shevchenko and electrotype 100. The obverse features a portrait of Ukrainian national poet Taras Shevchenko, a painter’s palette and brushes as a SPARK patch, and prose from his poem “Shall we ever meet again...”("Чи ми ще зійдемося знову") written in 1838.
